CGAmFG
I'm sailing away, set an open course for the virgin sea
CGAmFG
I've got to be free, free to face the life that's ahead of me
AmG
On board, I'm the captain, so climb aboard
AmG
We'll search for tomorrow on every shore
CGAmFGCFGFCG
And I'll try, oh Lord, I'll try to carry on
[ Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/styx/come_sail_away_crd_ver_3.html ]CGAmFG
I look to the sea, reflections in the waves spark my memory
CGAm
Some happy, some sad
FG
I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
AmG
We live happily forever, so the story goes
AmG
But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold
CGAmFGCFGFCFGF
But we'll try best that we can, to carry on
CFGF
A gathering of angels appeared above my head
CFGF
They sang to me this song of hope, and this is what they said
CF
They said come sail away, come sail away
GF
Come sail away with me .. lad
CF
Come sail away, come sail away
GF
Come sail away with me
(keyboard, break)
AbGbCFGF
I thought that they were angels, but to my surprise
CFGF
They climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies
CF
Singing come sail away, come sail away
GF
Come away with me
CF
Come sail away, come sail away
GF
Come sail away with me (rpt to end)

I was just recording a cover of this (davemcginn2.dmusic.com), and the
chords I found on this site are a little wrong, so I just copied the
lyrics and stuff from the other version and made the few changes to the
chords. Sounds better, I think. I threw in the little intro riff thing
that's played on piano, too.Enjoy!
